HOUR OF SLACK 584/SubSITE news First off, I managed to pry open SubSITE long enough to squeeze in the new art from Vreedeez, Nenslo and Friday, and to html that stuff into 3 new versions each of the 3 first pages. In other words, the front end of SubSITE looks way cool, like totally butt-hein. If you tune to SubSITE normally and then pursue the links towards the ONLINE STARK FIST you will be happy. If you click on "BACK TO PAGE ONE" at the end of fistclutch14.html, you'll get to index15.html... which'll take you through fist15.html and fistclutch15.html, the bottom of which will get you to index16.html. "Index14.html" is the current first-page default. Index 14 stars the Nenslo Real"Bob" Dobbshead, the most impressive Dobbshead interpretation I've ever seen. It has already given rise to debates. For instance, Jesus feels that this Dobbshead is "old" and somehow "bad," whereas I see it as "true" and "superior." That's a pretty drastic difference of opinion. That I am "old" and Jesus is "young" may have some bearing. That which is left to upload and to html is DAUNTING, doubly so since we now have to upload everything TWICE. There is a copy of SubSITE at www.subgenius.com now, on which we're experimenting in preparation for the final move. In the meantime, me, Jesus and Wandarer have to deal with a Janus-faced double website. ******************************************** Hour of Slack 584 -- X-Day Cultural Celebration Prophecy Special Starring: THE GREAT AND TERRIBLE IVAN STANG, ZOOGZ RIFT, DR.
